Red Curry Chicken

If you are looking for a meal that gives you a perfect blend of sweet and tangy with a slight hint of spice, then this Red Curry Chicken is for you!

The first time I stumbled upon red curry chicken was at a Thai restaurant. I immediately loved how curry was different from any other dish I had ever eaten before. I was impressed by the variety of spices and how each spice magically worked together, adding a unique and delicious depth of flavor in your mouth. Great for any time of year.

Before sitting down at this Thai restaurant, I have to admit I wasn’t very educated about curry. After falling in love with the complex flavors, I knew I had to check it out and learn more about it.

What is curry?

In a nutshell, curry is basically a dish with a sauce that has an added Thai or Indian-inspired spice blend, dry or in paste form.

Indian and Thai curries both use a complexity of spices that offer a unique and delicious taste. However, Thai curry is usually a paste, while Indian is a dry spice.

Red curry, which is the one used in this recipe, uses red curry paste which gets its color from the use of dried red chili peppers. Usually, red curry paste also contains turmeric. This is a great curry to choose because the blend of spices used adds a rich flavor and pairs well with pretty much any choice of protein.

Also, red curry paste seems to be the easiest to find. Most grocery stores carry this item, while in order to find other curry pastes, may require a trip to your local Asian market

I’m so excited for you to taste this Red Chicken Curry. Once you begin cooking, your mouth will begin to water from the flavorful aromas permeating through your kitchen and you will wonder what has ever stopped you from making curry before. And warning, once you’ve wet your appetite with one curry, you will want to try them all.
